Are you loving Medallion quilts lately? I have been seeing these everywhere lately! By the time I will make one it will be about a year or two after the trend. (like my unfinished granny squares quilt...sigh... Anyhow, Sharon from Lilabelle Lane made this amazing quilt. I am in love with it! Sharon makes some amazing quilts over at her blog. Here are her last year finishes, and the year before, be sure to visit...

I must admit that I just LOVE this quilt.

What started out as a project on a whim, inspired by the beautiful

Liberty Love Book.

These quilts started to appear over on Instagram and I just knew

I had to make one. This quilt took me outside my comfort zone

and I had no idea how it would end up. I was thinking scrappy

but didn't think my scrap containers could pull off what I had in my head.

I started with the two fabrics in the center and just let it grow and evolve.

I think that the addition of this black border was a defining point for this quilt.

I absolutely adore this quilt! I bought this book for the sole purpose of making this quilt and I'm hoping to use stash-only also! It's a little intimidating, but I think the end result will be worth it :) Just gorgeous!
